Should I Be Worried For Kidney Stones During Pregnancy?

I was just released from the hospital today, I ve been in the last 3 days with kidney stones and I m 35 weeks pregnant. When I lay down I have a big air bubble in my central upper stomach. When I press on it, it just pushes down. I can tell its not the baby. Should I be worried?

hi thanks for writing to us
kidney stones effects depends upon the position and size
air bubble in the central stomach is more in favour of gas formation in the stomach
it has no relation with kidney stones
just take adequate water .you are more prone for urinary tract infection
if there are symptoms such as sudden abdominal pain,pain during urination you need medical consultation thanks for writing to us
